Gypsy Curtain door hooks

Post by Dave Young » Wed Dec 23, 2020 5:07 pm

Having just installed a set of Gypsy curtains on my ‘26 RPU, I recalled that someone had posted that they had a bunch of NOS hooks available. The hooks that come with the new curtains are pretty much useless. Do any of your remember who that was or are able to find that post?

We took a 20 mile ride today and those damn hooks must of popped off of the doors 50 times. As soon as we got back I whipped up a pair of hooks from my memory of what the factory ones looked like. They work perfectly! Done.

Dan. That is exactly the post that I was after. Unfortunately, my recollection of what he had was the wrong kind of hook. Thanks for finding that and Merry Christmas!
